Hi there, The "saved logins" page auto resize the firefox window. Try it and open "chrome://passwordmgr/content/passwordManager.xul" in a new tab.. How to stop it from changing the window size? Thanks

You can check this pref on the about:config page.


You will have to open such XUL pages in a new window (Shift + left-click) to prevent the current window from getting resized.

I have it bookmarked, so I type "saved" in the address bar to get this page so I can't open it in a new window, and I am using it frequently, so how can I prevent it from resizing the window? It was working fine in older versions without any resizing issues.

Typing the keyword (saved) in the location bar and pressing Shift+Enter opens the Password Manager in a new resized window for me.
